Mexico City International Airport (AICM) has announced the winners of the Competition for the Architectural Conceptualization of this infrastructure, which will be remodeled for the 2026 World Cup.
He explained that in a plenary session of the members of the competition jury, they evaluated the finalist proposals with the participation of the College of Architects of Mexico City , the Secretariat of the Navy (Semar) , the Mexico City Airport Group and the AICM.
By anonymous vote, for Terminal 1, façade, last waiting rooms and outpatient clinic, the winners are Jesús Alexandro Rosas Candelario, Bernardo Briseño Martínez, Ricardo Ochoa Cárdenas and Alejandro Piña Morales .
Armando Román was in charge of the documentation rooms, Jacobo Octavio Arvizu Hernández, Karen Adriana Arreola Morales and Juan Zabdiel Montiel González were in charge of the immigration room. Isabel Arechederra Tovar / LMNS was in charge of the baggage claim rooms.
He specified, without giving further explanations, that the jury unanimously declared category 2.A Facade of Terminal 2 void.
At the time, Rear Admiral José Ramón Rivera, director of AICM, said that the tender that was launched on October 21, will be for functional and image work , the latter will only be aesthetic, since part of this airport was built in 1951, while Terminal 2 is almost 20 years old.
He said that the image of 11 areas will be changed, including the façade, outpatient clinics, final waiting rooms, immigration, customs, and the interior roundabout of Terminal 2 “so that we have, I repeat, an image with which we can welcome our guests in 2026, because we are one of the gateways to our country and we want to do so without complying with this pending issue that we already had.”
